No joke it blows.

Ive done the majority of bolt ons (coil packs, plugs, FMIC, 3" turbo back, EBC, SAFCII, SITC, Coil overs, camber arms, toe arms ect ect...) and its just starting to pull pretty well just if it had a real gear box :'(

:D the M35's dont come in manual at all yeah ??? unless ur a conversion king :D

i like the look of the C34's better anyway.

i was always like... *sigh* normally getting a manual = less $$. unless ur buying a stagea then its well into the other direction.

mine is a c34 mate :D

thinking of converting but mann its so pricey. prob will just get a shift kit.

yep i know man :D might be easier selling and buying a manual ? when i first looked u couldnt get a good manual for under 24k...

was just talking in general about M35's and that i dont think i'll ever own one.. hehe

C34's FTW

oh... that must mean u have leather interior ? *jealous*. i WAS thinking about modding my interior by finding a wrecked C34 with leather.. mmmm twin sunroof, manual, leather, black,. sexy.

4.5-6.5??

You may want to check if you a "stock" turbo hiding down there.

Don't think Nissan made a turbo with that much lag from factory.

it wouldn't be that the turbo is laggy it'll still come on full boost by 2500 rpm, with the RB25DET you don't start to feel the engine really pulling hard until around 4000 rpm.

Only in RWD (6 speed manual)

OOOo so they do come in manual! :(

lol. To each their own Thomas.

Would like to compare your modded C34 with my very lightly modded M35 sometime!

sounds fun :D i'm actually keen to get a dyno to see exactly what mines pulling atm b4 i change anything (if i even need to) :D

Yeah I've got Leather. Was one of the must haves when I was buying ;) How did you pick it?

i've actually been keeping an eye out for a year or so looking for the perfect one...(was always after black) and it fell into SSV. and i was REALLY tempted a couple of months ago but resisted until now and just went f**kit. i'm buying this cos no one else has bought it and i cant keep driving past it and wishing it was mine :D

i was also aware that manuals didnt come in leather. :(

so then i had to choose. and its easier to put leather interior in than change transmission i figured :P

the twin sunrooves just put the cherry on top :D

could be the slight flat spot experienced when the VVT switches off (around 5k rpm).

okay had a bit more of a play this weekend.

it will go past 5.5 just needs a bit of encouragement... :P i think i was just hesitant to push it hard :down:

(and after going past the first time..... second time felt like it was a tad smoother... wierd.... (a blockage of some sort???))

sortof stutters abit around the 5ish mark still..... would that be the VVT? :P

i was so glad when i saw it hit the red line in 1st :P

this dyno next week will give me a good idea of whats happening anyway!

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
